's first studio album since 1997's
Shapes
, 2009's
In Prism
is a solid return to mathy form. Although 12 years is a long hiatus, it's hardly noticeable that time has passed, with the exception of a few machinery and personnel updates: trading in their el cheapo '60s Sears guitars for some new gear and swapping out their drummer. Back on
Merge
after re-forming in 2008 to play
All Tomorrow's Parties
, the bandmembers (
Ash Bowie
,
Dave Brylawski
Steve Popson
, with
Cherry Valence
drummer
Brian Quast
) still have their chops intact, and they're intent on using them to create winding guitar and bass riffs and intertwining them with haphazard shifts in tempo. Along with getting mathy and ultra-precise, the band takes the opposite approach and elongates passages, stretching songs into psychedelic space rock territory and surpassing the eight-minute mark on several occasions. As an album,
may not quite live up to the explosiveness of
Today's Active Lifestyles
-- it's more like the calmer (and produced)
. But even if it's not their best ever, it's a valid comeback that should appease longing fans. ~ Jason Lymangrover
